La Yeon
Contemporary Korean
Floor-to-ceiling windows on the 23rd floor of the Shilla Hotel frame a sweep of Seoul skyline, though the contemporary Korean tasting menu tends to pull focus back to the table fairly quickly. The kitchen works with the classics rather than against them, keeping flavors clean and recognizable while quietly updating the techniques behind them. Two Michelin stars. Service is formal without being stiff, which at this altitude is harder than it looks.
